The only natural way to avoid suffering, be happy, is to seek and achieve wisdom all the time. That is also a guaranteed way to make you very lonely. The wiser and happier you are the lonelier it gets. There is no avoiding this.

There is one unnatural way, though. You do not get the wisdom but you can get the happiness. You can stick with one of the religions that deliver that. But you really have to be a devoted blind believer then. I would suggest Islam or one of the Japanese, although others might get you that , too. But be aware that this is not only a no wisdom approach, but also a very selfish one. By doing this you turn yourself into a slave, drag others with you, and incentivise slave masters to exist.

If many many people chose the wisdom path, maybe, just maybe, it would eventually get less lovely for the wise ones.

I guess we are all aware that among those religions that can make you happy and not lonely while staying dumb is also this weird religion where your slave-master is your god. To properly follow this religion, one has to:

- love and respect his master

- do all the work he is giving and never expect to stop

- be happy with whatever compensation he is giving

- all that makes sense because the master protects you from fellow slaves who are trying to cheat, rob, and kill you. And also cures your illnesses.

- never suspect nor think that the master also hires your fellow slaves to try to cheat, rob, and kill you, and also gives you all those illnesses through poisoning and infecting you.

But this one is not one of my favorits. I remain with my previous recommendations.
